Hi I have to redo my pond in the spring. Its a rubber liner and the walls
are moving in, probably not built in the best way in the first place. Where
can I look to learn more on how to properly build a pond. Second question,
What type of filter. Where can I go to read and learn about filters? I've
been using a sponge type filter and cleaning it weekly, are the biological
type better, less maintenance. Any help is apprecicated.

Depends on what kind of pond you're planning. If for some spendy koi, go to
www.akca.org and read all the articles under Koi Health Advisors.

I have several ponds & filter types on my website to see & read about.
I highly recommend, regardless if koi pond or water garden, put in a bottom
drain (thru the liner) and skimmer. You won't regret it when it comes to
maintenance. ~ jan
